[QUOTE="LVJ76, post: 1812765, member: 108965"] Yes agreed, heavier bullets are tougher and are better and as an example I learned recently from member [USER=14204]@FEENIX[/USER] is that on my 7mm-08 I can use the 139gr SST which I love but I can also use the 162gr A-Max and both are good out to 500m, although heavier but with the higher BC both are at or above 1,800 fps and at or above 1,000 ft/lbs of energy at this distance. The exception are bonded bullets, no issues with lighter ones except just more meat damage [/QUOTE]
